In The Groove: The most Shazam’d song in the world, new music from Hello Mary, Lizz Wright + more

Listen to “In the Groove” with Ryan Patrick Hooper weekdays from noon-3 p.m. ET on 101.9 WDET.

"In the Groove" host Ryan Patrick Hooper in WDET's studios in Detroit.

Did you watch the closing ceremony of the Olympics in Paris? It brought out some big acts, including Phoenix and Air (who are definitely in regular rotation on the show).

The most interesting thing was how many people wanted to know about Kavinsky and his track “Nightcall,” which became the most Shazam’d song ever with nearly 7 million people wondering, “the hell is this?” Decided to sandwich that track in there, alongside new music from Hello Mary, Kessoncoda, Lizz Wright and more.

Check the playlist below and listen to the episode for two weeks after it airs using the player above.
